I drive a nissan sentra with a QG16DE engine.
I just changed my air filter (p/n 16546-V0100) which was in the car from day one. Mileage is at 24,000 km. I noticed the entire filter was covered with oil, not dripping but if you run you fingers through it, you get quite a bit of oil on your fingers. But the inner walls of the air box is has no oil.
The filter was taken out and cleaned at 15,000 km but there was no oil then. Is this normal ? Any comments from fellow sentra owners ? Thanks.
